Okay, Now What?
You have your video masterpiece. What's next? Does it need to be in a format that can be used on the internet? A mobile device? Is it a training video that needs to be on a DVD? Perhaps it needs to be distributed via email or social media.
There are a lot of multimedia choices these days, and 2X2 Media performs what needs to be done for you. Be it CD, DVD, Blu-Ray, hard drive, memory stick, web page, YouTube, portable device or smart phone 2X2 delivers.
"Movie theaters still exist in spite of all of the alternatives that are available, video and video-on-demand and DVD and streaming video and all of these things."
Not sure on format or codec? Not a problem. We help determine what you need. The list is long including HD, QuickTime, Apple ProRes, HDV, XDCAM, DVCPRO HD, Windows Media Video, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264, H.261, Flash, 4:2:2, 4:4:4 and many more.
You already have a video file? If you need an existing file converted (one format to another) or some form of video that needs to be edited (or whatever), again no problem, contact us!
DVDs aren't just for movies
If you need a large quantity of videos (conventions, training materials/seminars, promotional, etc.) DVDs are extremely cost effective. They can be viewed on a number of devices (both home and business) plus they can be a hybrid (part DVD ROM and part DVD video) to allow viewing of documents like PDFs, photos, etc.
2X2 Media can master your new or existing video onto a DVD (or Blu-Ray if the source material is 1080p). We can create a menu (just like the DVDs you buy at the store) and create a good looking label for the disk and cover.

Some random information
Codec
The word codec in broad terms refers to ways of reducing data by using a compressor (compress the data to make it smaller). However compressed data is of no use unless you can decompress and bring it back to something useable, hence the combined word codec (can be software or hardware).
There are literally hundreds of different media codecs in use today (ie. MP3 is a popular audio codec and H.264 is a very common video codec).
DVD ROM
DVD Read Only Memory disks are those DVDs used by software companies to store high volumes of data. Depending on the type these disks they can store over 4 Gigabytes of information.
The read-only designation refers to the fact that these disks cannot be updated or used to record. There are DVD hybrids for both video playing and computer use but normally DVD ROMs are only for use in computers.
Bit Rate
In digital multimedia applications the term bit rate (or sometimes bitrate) refers to the number of bits used per unit of time to represent a continous medium such as audio or video after compression (see codec). For example the encoding bit rate for a multimedia file is the size of the file in bytes divided by the playback time of the recording in seconds, multiplied by eight.
